If getting the vaccine doesn't actually impact the spread, only the symptoms, it's in the category of not smoking, wearing your seatbelt, wearing a helmet on a motorcycle, eating healthy, etc. Individual decisions impacting ones own well-being. Are those things showing patriotism? I wouldn't say so.
If the vaccine helps stop the spread, I agree with you, but if this recent info from the CDC is correct then that changes it for me.
